THE ARRANGEMENT OF A POETIC MEMOIR by Shane C Richards
“Perfection is vain man’s folly
men who boast of attaining perfection
are foolish
Integrity true man’s hope
men who spruik of honour
are liars
Men who allow others to read their deepest thoughts
devoid of fear of judgement
are men worthy of inner peace”

“There is nothing wrong with a Poem so deep, that it makes you cry. There is nothing wrong with a Poem so funny, you laugh so hard, you start to cry. Either way, we end up crying. Though there is nothing wrong with a good cry, every now and then. Especially when those tears roll, from a love of Poetry.

The Poet by Shane C Richards
“Words, yes, they are but words. I agree, actions do speak louder than words alone. Though, without words, who
would take any action? So how can the pen be mightier than the sword. Because you need a pen to sign a peace
accord not a sword. You need a pen to write a loved one, when they cannot be near. Words, yes, they are but
words.”
